It's been awhile since I watched historical dramas because it's mostly all about political power play and it's usually long and boring for the most parts so when I heard about Mr. Queen (belatedly because I don't really watch on-going dramas) the plot immediately got me interested. I was never disappointed. It was very interesting and fun and the story is not that complicated, it's straightforward and linear. There were some twists every now and then that will surprise you and I loved the story from start to finish.

Shin HyeSun might look like she's overreacting but for me I felt like her portrayal as the Queen with Jang BongHwan inside is pretty much incredible. Even without Choi JinHyuk's over voice I can still feel his character as a man trapped in the Queens body. Her portrayal of BongHwan and SoYoung is distinct that you'll know exactly who is who. Thumbs up for the great acting. It goes the same for most of the characters, their chemistry is exceptional. They are fun and bubbly. They really made me enjoy the show from start to finish.

Overall, the plot is very reasonable. I didn't feel bothered by how it ended unlike most dramas do and I really love the OST too. If you haven't seen a historical drama in a while, I really recommend this. It's a relaxing ride of fun, tears and many more.
